My Dad Joe couldn't make the
show at last minute! :(
A great
night of punk headlined by Watford's
finest My Dad Joe, with support from
Wales’ Stupid Brick who were originally lined up for the
MusicZombie punk all dayer, but
who’s car died and couldn’t make it! And also with 3-piece punk/ska
rockers My Audio Heroes hailing from
Wellingborough opening the evening!

My Dad Joe have completed four
tours, most recently as headliners, that have seen them play
down south all the way up to Scotland including every main city
in England and Wales. At shows the band are widely recognized as
one of the most energetic acts around with their feet barely
touching the floor for more than a second. This live appeal
along with their thoughtful, melodic punk rock tunes have earned
the band a strong following not only in the UK but abroad too
thanks to mp3.com. My Dad Joe have received Radio 1 airplay on
Mike Davies show The Lock Up, been guests on Total Rock Radio
and have featured in the Total Rock Revolution on The Storm
Radio. This airplay has also contributed to widening their
audience throughout the country. My Dad Joe have proved they can
certainly hold their own and manage to fit in on any description
of bills, most recently supporting hardcore legends 25 Ta Life
at the Camden underworld.
Now the band have recorded their
debut album high goals have been set. The band looks forward to
pushing themselves as much as they can and hope to see you at
this show!

Bio
STUPIDBRICK are a 4 piece skate
punk rock band from Bridgend, South Wales. Formed in '97, we
haven't played with anyone significant and will never make it in
the big time. We recently lost our original singer of 4 years due
to his sudden sex change and move to Australia to pursue a career
in transsexual animal porn movies.
We scoured the gutters of the valleys,
far and wide, eventually finding ourselves a true gladiator in
Adam Davies. Winning the official Under 14's Gladiators (!!!)
title, he has served us well and even though he can't sing, we
can't fault his commitment to the band.
Reviews
DragonNinja.co.uk :: Chemical
Reaction, Pete's Sake, and STUPIDBRICK ...
Petes Sake had already started when I arrived, but still I still
managed to catch some of their classic punk / emo crowd pleasers
as well as wicked new material by the band, delivered in an
energetic performance. The surprisingly large crowd eventually gave
in to the dance floor and were wound up for the next band,
STUPIDBRICK. STUPIDBRICK wowed the crowd with their energetic
style of skate punk. The fast and energetic style of their songs
whipped the crowd into a circular pit frenzy, introducing the
first crowd surfers of the night and leaving the audience itching
for more. Next, was Chemical Reaction, kicking straight into their
smooth, classy blend of ska, punk and reggae, playing a
combination of class CR songs and brand new tracks from their new
CD. The crowd went wild for the sound of 'message to rudy' by the
specials and nutty cover of 'animal hospital' too. Wicked stuff
... what a night!!!
bbc.co.uk :: STUPIDBRICK ...
Friends of Chemical Reaction and fellow skate punkers,
STUPIDBRICK play their brand of punk exceptionally fast. Keeping
the skate punk spirit alive, their eight track demo is packed full
of bursting, youthful, hi-nrg guitar thrash. Featured here is the
cutely written 'Stuck in the middle', all about trying to find a
girl who used to stroke the writer's head (yes, that's right it
reads "head").

... Finally, STUPIDBRICK played. They were meant to play 2nd
on the bill, but with such a huge crowd who came to see them, they
made their presence known later on in the night. Previously known
as Missing Something Stupid, STUPIDBRICK showed the same talent as
they did under their different name - only the singer looks bald
now!!! The crowd love this band, and it's easy to see why. Their
set comprises of so many punk influences, ranging from hardcore to
the metal, and is incredibly easy to listen to - Fantastic!.
